Sweat365 - Move more - every day!
I got my 900 miles. My final run of the year was Bridle Trails. This run is very difficult in terms of hills, but good because of soft surface. Hopefully, running here will make it easier for me to run faster on the flats.

I was hoping to run 10 miles today, but it didn’t happen. I started getting phone calls and the day got away from me.

Feeling sick since Christmas…just trying to get in my easy miles.

Workout:
I started out hoping to run 9 miles. My music ran out about mile 3.5 though. I’m also getting a cold and don’t have a lot of energy. I took that as a sign to cut my run short and run longer tomorrow.
Merry Christmas!

The hills were tough and I had a hard time keeping up with Andrea and Michelle. I just haven’t put in the road miles. The treadmill isn’t the same. Either that or I’m getting older. The aches and pains are starting to catch up!

Although I got a late start, I’ve been a serious runner since 1994. I ran my first marathon in 1995 on my 30th Birthday. It’s been my goal to run the Boston Marathon since then. I missed qualifying by 12 minutes that year. I needed to run 3:40 and ran 3:52. Running in the most prestigious marathon, is the ultimate for most runners. The fact that you have to qualify, only fueled my competitive juices.
Over the next 9 years I ran 6 more marathons. I love running so much that I became a personal trainer and running coach in 2001. I continued to train and came within 4 minutes of my goal in 2003, when I ran 3:49. I was seriously hoping to qualify in 2004, but it didn’t happen. I had flare ups of plantar fasciitis off and on since I began running. In 2006 I ran 5 half marathons. Apparently this was too much for my body to handle. My plantar fasciitis became acute. I had to take time off to heal. (more...)
